Ex-Turkey merchant bar export prices have risen by $10/mt to $820-830/mt FOB for April-May shipment in the past two weeks, amid currency fluctuations, the uncertain financial situation in Turkey, and Russia’s attack on Ukraine and its possible consequences.
A few merchant bar re-rollers have stopped quoting for now, while a few merchant bar re-rollers are offering material for extended shipment terms. Demand is moderate.
